resistive ballooning mode
Materials science; Material physics
Pressure-driven mode in which instability is caused or significantly enhanced by electrical resistivity, and the perturbation is concentrated mostly on the outboard edge of a ...
inverse bremsstrhalung
Materials science; Material physics
Process in which electromagnetic waves are absorbed rather than emitted; this is the resistive damping of the electromagnetic wave that occurs due to enhanced electron-ion ...
recycling
Materials science; Material physics
Processes that result in plasma ions interacting with a surface and returning to the plasma again, usually as a neutral atom.
Wake fields
Materials science; Material physics
Produced in accelerators by electromagnetic interaction of charged beam particles and metallic surfaces of the beam chamber. These fields can change trajectory of beam particles. ...
Robins effect
Materials science; Material physics
Produced when a lateral force on a rotating sphere from altered pressure forces is generated. The force is perpendicular to both the rotation axis and direction of fluid motion. ...
magnetic energy
Materials science; Material physics
Product of the magnetic field strength and flux density for points on the demagnetization curve of a permanent magnet which provides a measure of the energy generated in a ...
Feynman path integral
Materials science; Material physics
Profound and remarkable reformulation of quantum mechanics by R.P. Feynman in 1948 (acting on P.A.M. Dirac's hint from 1933). In this formulation, the quantum mechanical amplitude ...
